Men's tennis takes 7th in K.C.
Led by two-time Honorable
Mention All-American (NAIA)
Bill Stephanz, Guilford's finest
men's tennis team ever finished
seventh at the NAIA National
championships held May 27-31
in Kansas City, Kansas.
Stephanz, seeded third, went
four rounds before losing a
tough fifth round match in three
sets. Pekka Kilpio, Jesus
Ceron, and Cesar Villaroel all
bowed out in third round play,
while Gary Silverstein and Scott
Nichols exited in the second
round. After gaining first round
byes, doubles teams of Nichols-
Villaroel and Ceron-Howard
Goodstat won second round
matches but bowed out in the
third. The No. 1 doubles combi
nation of Stephanz-Kilpio went
only as far as the second round
before losing.
Although a stronger finish
was expected, no frowns are
necessary from a team which
set a new school record for wins
with 21 before going on to
capture both the Carolinas Con
ference and District 26 titles.
"We had a super season and
realized some long range goals
in winning the conference and
district championships," com

While the men's tennis team
was busy out in Kansas City,
Guilford's golf team was equ
ally busy gaining some national
recognition of its own up in Bay
City, Michigan at the NAIA
National championship. Led by
All-American Michael (Jay)
Kennedy, who finished third
individually with a four-round
total of 288, the team took fifth
out of a field of thirty-six.
The team, under the direction
of Jack Jensen, finished just
five shots out of second with a
total of 1,199. In addition to
Kennedy's, individual scores
were: Mike Cardwell-301; Rob
bie Phillips-303; Robert Lin
ville-309; and Mark Sharp-315.
Winning seasons usually
leave in their wake a host of
individual honors and this one
was no exception for the Caro
linas Conference and District 26
champions. Prior to earning All-
American status for the second
consecutive year, Kennedy was
New Garden School coming soon

As the joke seems inevitable,
you might as well read it here
first. No, the younger, shorter
students that you will soon be
seeing around campus are not
still younger, shorter, fresh
men. They are seventh through
tenth graders from New Garden
Friends School, and they are the
reason all the dirt is being piled
up out past the dump (or, as Dr.
Rogers has been heard to say,
"We prefer to call it the north
end of campus"). The New
Garden students will be moving
into the temporary housing,
now under construction, in mid-
September as part of a pilot
project designed to create a
Quaker community, including
New Garden Friends School,
Guilford College, and Friends
Home.

ally, but the ankle injury Pekka
sustained in the district tourna
ment really never came around
and we lost a lot of points in the
nationals because he just wasn't
able to play at full strength."
Alley didn't fare too badly
himself, being named both con
ference and district Coach-of
the-Year. He was also a finalist
for the National Coach-of-the-
Year and was selected to take a
four-player All-Star team to
Guadalajara to compete with
some of the best Mexican
collegiate players. Stephanz
and Tony Mmoh, Atlantic
Christian's All-American, were
also selected for the team.
Despite the loss of Stephanz
and Silverstein to graduation,
Alley is optimistic about the 'Bl
season. "We will really miss
Bill and Gary this year, but we
have a freshman from Finland,
Juha Kalliokowski, who could j
contend for one of the top three I
singles spots, and I believe that
Howard Goodstat, Gavin Beh
rens, and Dan Wheatley, who
did not play in the top six last
year, will have outstanding
years and contribute in a very
significant way. With a lot of
hard work we can have an even
better team this year."
also named All-District. Phillips
and Linville took All-Conference
honors and joined Kennedy as
All-District golfers. The man
behind it all, Coach Jensen, will
have to find room for two more
awards, namely, the Carolinas
Conference and District 26
Coach-of-Year plaques. Our
hats are off to Coach Jensen and
the team members on another
excellent season!
For the last seven years, New
Garden Friends has been kin
dergarten - ninth grade, and
has been leasing space and
sharing a building with the Boys
Club in town on Neal Street,
where the K-6 will remain.
Barbara Cottesman, the new
Head of New Garden Friends,
and a major force behind the
upper school move to Guilford
College, has big plans for the
school. She would like to see the
school become an educational
force in the community: this
includes growth in enrollment,
expansion through the 12th
grade, and eventually a perma
nent building housing the entire
school. If the Guilford project is
a success this year, next year
will also include an 11th and
12th grade out at Guilford.
Long-range hopefuls see the
whole school eventually moving
21-6 will certainly be a tough
act to follow, but then again, it
wasn't long ago that national
recognition was only a dream.

out by the college and by that
time, the school will have
expanded from both ends to
involve a pre-school (which will
not actually be a part of the
school, but under its wing), now
being developed by Rachel Ben
fey.
Barbara Cottesman is excited
about the possibilities that a
wide-ranging Quaker Commu
nity opens up, and she envi
sions New Garden as a "School
without walls," taking full ad
vantage of the opportunities.
Students will be involved inoral
history projects with the senior
citizens from Friends Home on
the Battle of Guilford Court
house, the origin of their school,
and the historical contributions
of Quakers to our society. They
will also attempt to revive some
of the old arts, the almost-gone
craftsmanship skills that the
older citizens are familiar with.
The school also plans coopera
tion with Cuilford, and will
make use of student teachers
and student aides.
At this point, the seventh
through tenth grades include 13
students, 2 full-time teachers:

Bob Welsh, former Head of the
school who this year returns to
full-time teaching, and Jeanne
Towe Hooks, a 1980 Guilford
Graduate in Geolegy. They will
split the humanities and the
math/science responsibilities
respectively, and also make use
of the resource teachers in art,
music, physical education, and
Spanish, which they will share
with K-6.
The project of creating a
multi-age level Quaker commu
nity, with all three institutions
in such close proximity and
cooperation, is a unique one. It
has been on the minds of a
number of Guilford people for a
while, but has taken time to get
the approval of the Board of
Directors of New Garden and
The Board of Trustees of Guil
ford. Dr. Rogers has been an
especially active supporter of
the idea. The results of this
year's project will be written up
by Barbara Gottesman and Bob
Welsh and submitted to educa
tion journals, and may well
serve as a model for other
similar ventures.
